Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp., a blank check company, has completed its initial public offering of 10,000,000 units at $10.00 each, raising gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Each unit includes one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fourth of an ordinary share after a future business combination.

Including 251,250 private units sold to sponsors, $100,500,000 has been placed in a U.S. trust account for the benefit of public shareholders. An audited balance sheet as of May 7, 2026 shows total assets of $101,518,073, mainly the trust cash, against modest current liabilities.

The auditor’s report and Note 1 highlight substantial doubt about Vernal Capital’s ability to continue as a going concern. The company must complete a qualifying business combination within 15 months from the IPO closing, or up to 21 months if extended, or it will be wound up and liquidated with public shares redeemed from the trust.

Positive

  • Raised $100 million in IPO: Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. completed its initial public offering of 10,000,000 units at $10.00 each, plus 251,250 private units, resulting in $100,500,000 placed into a U.S. trust account to support a future business combination and potential shareholder redemptions.

Negative

  • Going concern warning and liquidation risk: The auditor and management state that failure to complete a qualifying business combination within 15 months from the IPO closing (or up to 21 months with extensions) would trigger automatic winding up, dissolution, and liquidation, raising substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Insights

SPAC raises $100M but faces tight timeline and going concern risk.

Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. has launched as a SPAC, selling 10,000,000 public units at $10.00 and 251,250 private units. Net IPO and private placement proceeds of $100,500,000 are locked in a trust account to fund a future business combination or redemptions.

The structure mirrors typical SPAC terms: public shareholders can redeem at roughly trust value, sponsors hold 2,875,000 founder shares, and rights convert into one-fourth of a share upon a successful deal. The trust is invested in U.S. Treasury instruments, while only $943,073 sits outside the trust for working capital.

Both the auditor and management flag substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern unless it completes a qualifying business combination within 15 months from the IPO closing (or up to 21 months with extensions). Future filings about progress toward a business combination and any use of extension options will be important for understanding how this risk evolves.

going concern financial
"These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern."
A going concern is a business that is expected to continue its operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, rather than shutting down or selling off assets. This assumption matters to investors because it indicates stability and ongoing profitability, making the business a more reliable investment. Think of it as believing a restaurant will stay open and serve customers, rather than closing down suddenly.
Business Combination financial
"for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination"
A business combination happens when two or more companies join together to operate as one, like two friends merging their teams into a single group. This is important because it can change how companies grow, compete, and make money, often making them bigger and more powerful in the market.
Trust Account financial
"was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States"
A trust account is a special bank or brokerage account where assets are held and managed by a designated person or firm (the trustee) for the benefit of another person or group (the beneficiary). It matters to investors because it separates assets from personal or corporate funds, can protect assets, control how and when money is used, and may affect tax or legal rights—think of it as a locked drawer opened only under agreed rules.
ordinary shares subject to possible redemption financial
"Ordinary shares, $0.0001 par value, 500,000,000 shares authorized, 10,000,000 shares subject to possible redemption"
over-allotment option liability financial
"Over-allotment option liability | | | 135,280"
emerging growth company regulatory
"The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933"
An emerging growth company is a recently public or smaller public firm that qualifies for temporary, lighter regulatory and disclosure rules to reduce the cost and effort of being public. For investors, it means the company may provide less historical financial detail and face fewer reporting requirements than larger firms, so it can grow more quickly but also carries higher uncertainty—like buying a promising early-stage product with fewer user reviews.

Item 8.01. Other Events

 

As previously disclosed on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 11, 2026, on May 7, 2026, Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) consummated its initial public offering (the “IPO”) of 10,000,000 units (the “Units”). Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) and one right entitling the holder to receive one-fourth (1/4) of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating total gross proceeds of $100,000,000.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Private Units Purchase Agreement, the Company completed the private placement of an aggregate of 251,250 units (the “Private Units”) to its sponsors, Vernal One Limited and Xesse Ventures Limited, at $10.00 per Private Unit, each Private Unit consisting of one Ordinary Share and one right entitling the holder to receive one-fourth (1/4) of one Ordinary Share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination. The Private Units are identical to the Units sold in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in the registration statement for the IPO. No underwriting discounts or commissions were paid with respect to such sale. The issuance of the Private Units was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, $100,500,000 has been deposited into a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee, for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders.

 

An audited balance sheet as of May 7, 2026 reflecting receipt of the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Units has been issued by the Company and is included with the report as Exhibit 99.1.

Opinion on the Financial Statement

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") as of May 7, 2026, and the related notes to the financial statement (collectively referred to as the "financial statement"). In our opinion, the financial statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of May 7, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statement has been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statement, if the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO (or up to 21 months if extended), the Company will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans to address this uncertainty are also described in Note 1. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

The financial statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statement based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

VERNAL CAPITAL ACQUISITION CORP.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT

MAY 7, 2026

 

Note 1 — Description of Organization and Business Operations

 

Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on July 28, 2025. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or geographic region for purposes of consummating a Business Combination.  The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, it is subject to all the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

 

As of May 7, 2026, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activities through May 7, 2026 are related to the Company’s organizational activities as well as activities related to completing the initial public offering (“IPO”), which are described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the IPO and sale of Private Placement Units (as defined below). The Company has selected January 31 as its fiscal year end.

 

The Company’s sponsors are Vernal One Limited (“Sponsor A”) and Xesse Ventures Limited (“Sponsor B”) (collectively the “Sponsors”), both are British Virgin Island business companies.

 

The registration statement for the IPO was declared effective on May 5, 2026. On May 7, 2026, the Company consummated its IPO of 10,000,000 units (the “Public Units”). The Public Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000. Simultaneously with the IPO, the Company sold to its Sponsor 251,250 units at $10.00 per unit (the “Private Units”) in a private placement generating total gross proceeds of $ 2,512,500, which is described in Note 4.

 

Transaction costs amounted to $1,288,267, consisting of $517,500 underwriting commissions, which were paid in cash at the closing date of the IPO, and $770,767 of legal and other offering costs. On the IPO date, $929,774 in cash (after deducting the $300,000 outstanding sponsor loan), was held outside the Trust Account and available for working capital.

 

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the Private Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete a Business Combination having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned in the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into an initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.

 

Following the closing of the IPO on May 7, 2026, an amount of $100,500,000 ($10.05 per Public Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Public Units and the Private Units was placed in the trust account (the “Trust Account”), located in the United States, with Continental Transfer and Trust Company acting as trustee. The funds held in the trust account will be invested only in U.S. government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the applicable conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest solely in direct U.S. government treasury. Except with respect to dividend and/or interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay the Company’s tax obligation, if any, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the private placement units that are deposited and held in the Trust Account will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (i) the completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the company’s post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to (A) modify the substance or timing of obligation to redeem 100% of our public shares if the Company does not complete the Company’s initial Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO, (or up to 21 months with extensions as described in its registration statement), (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, and (iii) the redemption of all of our public shares if the company are unable to complete their initial business combination within 15 months from the closing of the IPO, (or up to 21 months with extensions as described in its registration statement), subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a public shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account.

 

F-3

 

The Company will provide its shareholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares upon the completion of the Business Combination either (i) in connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. If the Company seeks shareholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a shareholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, shareholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain shareholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. Additionally, each public shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsors and any of the Company’s officers or directors that may hold Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) (the “Initial Shareholders”) and the underwriters have agreed (a) to vote their Founder Shares, Private Shares (as defined in Note 4), Shares issued as underwriting commissions (see Note 6) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of approving a Business Combination and (b) not to convert any shares (including the Founder Shares) in connection with a shareholder vote to approve, or sell the shares to the Company in any tender offer in connection with, a proposed Business Combination.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provides that a public shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

 

The Company will have 15 months from the closing of the IPO (subject to six one-month extensions after the closing of the offering by depositing into the Trust Account, for each one-month extension, $330,000, or up to $379,500 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full (representing $0.0330 per share of the total units sold in this offering) to complete its initial Business Combination (“Completion Window”). If the Company is unable to complete its initial Business Combination within the Completion Window, unless the Company extends such period pursuant to its post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the Company will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the rights, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete the initial business combination within the Completion Window.

 

The Sponsors, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private shares and public shares in connection with the completion of our initial business combination; (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, private shares and public shares in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to our post-offering amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (a) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to allow redemption in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we have not consummated an initial business combination within the Completion Window or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity; (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their initial shares and private shares if we fail to complete our initial business combination within the Completion Window, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame; and (iv) vote any initial shares and private shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after this offering (including in open market and privately-negotiated transactions, aside from shares they may purchase in compliance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act, which would not be voted in favor of approving the business combination transaction) in favor of the Company’s initial business combination.

 

F-4

 

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, The Sponsors have agreed that they will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business Combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.05 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.05 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, the Company has not asked the Sponsors to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has the Company independently verified whether the Sponsors have sufficient funds to satisfy their indemnity obligations and the Company believes that the Sponsors’ only assets are securities of the Company. Therefore, the Company cannot assure the Sponsors will be able to satisfy those obligations.

 

Going Concern Consideration

 

As of May 7, 2026, the Company had $943,073 in cash and working capital deficit of $793,727. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of the consummation of an initial Business Combination. In addition, the Company currently has until August 7, 2027 (unless the Company extends such period by amending its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association) to consummate the initial Business Combination. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the prescribed timeline, the Company will trigger an automatic winding up, dissolution and liquidation pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has determined that it has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its acquisition plans. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful within the Completion Window. The Company lacks the financial resources it needs to sustain operations for a reasonable period of time, which is considered to be one year from the date of the issuance of the financial statement. Therefore, management has determined that such additional conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern until the earlier of the consummation of the Business Combination or the date the Company is required to liquidate. The financial statement does not include any adjustments that might result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Various social and political circumstances in the U.S. and around the world (including tariffs, rising trade tensions between the U.S. and China, and other uncertainties regarding actual and potential shifts in the U.S. and foreign, trade, economic and other policies with other countries), may contribute to increased market volatility and economic uncertainties or deterioration in the U.S. and worldwide.

 

As a result of these circumstances and the ongoing global conflicts and/or other future global conflicts, the Company’s ability to consummate a Business Combination, or the operations of a target business with which the Company ultimately consummates a Business Combination, may be materially and adversely affected. Although the length and impact of the ongoing conflicts are highly unpredictable, they could lead to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain interruptions and increased cyberattacks against U.S. companies. Additionally, any resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets and lead to instability and lack of liquidity in capital markets. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Note 2 — Significant accounting policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statement is presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

F-5

 

Emerging Growth Company Status

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

 

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the financial statement in conformity with U.S. GAAP, the Company’s management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported expenses during the reporting period.

 

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash of $943,073 and no cash equivalent as of May 7, 2026.

 

Cash Held in Trust Account

 

As of May 7, 2026, the assets held in the Trust Account, amounting to $100,500,000, were held in cash.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

 

F-6

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

 

The Company applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework. ASC 820 defines fair value as an exit price, which is the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the Company’s principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820 generally requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions based on market data and the entity’s judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are to be developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

 

Level 1—Assets and liabilities with unadjusted, quoted prices listed on active market exchanges. Inputs to the fair value measurement are observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2—Inputs to the fair value measurement are determined using prices for recently traded assets and liabilities with similar underlying terms, as well as direct or indirect observable inputs, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

 

Level 3—Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs, such as estimates, assumptions, and valuation techniques when little or no market data exists for the assets or liabilities.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company complies with the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 340-10-S99-1, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs – SEC Materials” (“ASC 340-10-S99”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 5A, “Expenses of Offering”. Deferred offering costs were $1,288,267 consisting principally of $517,500 underwriting fees and $ 770,767 legal and other expenses that are directly related to the IPO and charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the IPO.

 

F-7

 

Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption

 

The Company accounts for its ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (ASC 480). Ordinary shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) will be classified as a liability instrument and will be measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable ordinary shares (including ordinary shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) will be classified as temporary equity. At all other times, ordinary shares will be classified as stockholders’ equity. In accordance with ASC 480-10-S99, the Company classifies the ordinary shares subject to redemption outside of permanent equity as the redemption provisions are not solely within the control of the Company. Given that the 10,000,000 ordinary shares sold as part of the Units in the IPO were issued with other freestanding instruments (i.e., rights), the initial carrying value of ordinary shares classified as temporary equity has been allocated to the proceeds determined in accordance with ASC 470-20. If it is probable that the equity instrument will become redeemable, the Company has the option to either (i) accrete changes in the redemption value over the period from the date of issuance (or from the date that it becomes probable that the instrument will become redeemable, if later) to the earliest redemption date of the instrument or (ii) recognize changes in the redemption value immediately as they occur and adjust the carrying amount of the instrument to equal the redemption value at the end of each reporting period. The Company has elected to recognize the changes immediately. The initial accretion and subsequent remeasurements will be treated as a deemed dividend (i.e., a reduction to retained earnings, or in absence of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital). Accordingly, as of May 7, 2026, ordinary shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet. As of May 7, 2026, the ordinary shares subject to redemption reflected in the balance sheet are reconciled in the following table:

 

Gross proceeds  $100,000,000 
Less:     
Proceeds allocated to Public Share Rights   (3,751,046)
Public Shares issuance costs   (1,239,313)
Proceeds allocated to over-allotment option   (135,280)
Plus:     
Remeasurement of carrying value to redemption value   5,625,639 
Ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, May 7, 2026  $100,500,000 

 

Rights Accounting

 

The Company accounts for rights as either equity-classified or liability-classified instrument based on an assessment of the right’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 and ASC 815. The assessment considers whether the rights are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the rights meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the rights are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares and whether the right holders could potentially require “net cash settlement” in a circumstance outside of the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of right issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the rights are outstanding.

 

For issued or modified rights that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the rights are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance. For issued or modified rights that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the rights are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the rights are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

 

As the rights to be issued upon the closing of the IPO and private placements meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815, therefore, the rights are classified as equity.

 

F-8

 

Over-allotment Option Liability

 

The Company accounts for over-allotment as either equity-classified or liability-classified instrument based on an assessment of the over-allotment option’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the over-allotment option is a freestanding financial instrument pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the over-allotment option meets all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the over-allotment option is indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment is conducted at the time of over-allotment option issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the over-allotment option is outstanding.

 

For over-allotment option that meets all of the criteria for equity classification, it is recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For over-allotment option that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, they are required to be recorded as a liability at its initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the over-allotment option are recognized as a non-cash gain or loss on the statements of operations.

 

The Company accounted for the over-allotment option (see Note 9) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40. The over-allotment is not considered indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, and as such, it does not meet the criteria for equity treatment and is recorded as a liability.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of May 7, 2026. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

 

There is currently no taxation imposed on income by the Government of the Cayman Islands. In accordance with Cayman Islands federal income tax regulations, income taxes are not levied on the Company. Consequently, income taxes are not reflected in the Company’s financial statement.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosure (“ASU 2023-09”), which enhances the transparency and usefulness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted this guidance on February 1, 2026 and there was no significant impact.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statement.

Note 3 — Initial Public Offering

 

On May 7, 2026, the Company sold 10,000,000 Units, at a price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share and one right (the “Public Right”). Each Public Right entitles the holder to convert into one-fourth (1/4) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares upon conversion of the rights upon the conversion of the rights. As a result, the holder must hold rights in multiples of 4 in order to receive shares for all of their rights upon closing of a Business Combination.

 

Note 4 — Private Placement

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 251,250 Private Units at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit for an aggregate purchase price of $2,512,500. Sponsor A purchased approximately 85% of the placement units, representing 213,562 units, and Sponsor B purchased the remaining 37,688 units.

 

Each Private Unit consists of one ordinary share (“Private Share”) and one right (“Private Right”). Each Private Right will receive one-fourth (1/4) of one ordinary share upon the consummation of a Business Combination. The Company will not issue fractional shares upon the conversion of the rights. As a result, the holder must hold rights in multiples of 4 in order to receive shares for all of their rights upon closing of a Business Combination. The proceeds from the Private Units will be added to the proceeds from the IPO to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Private Units and all underlying securities will expire worthless.

 

Note 5 — Related Party Transactions

 

Founder Shares

 

On July 31, 2025, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”) to the Sponsors for total consideration of $25,000, or approximately $0.0145 per ordinary share. In March 2026, the Company issued 2,875,000 founder shares to the Sponsors for $25,000, and immediately repurchased the 1,725,000 initial shares from the Sponsors for $25,000, being the proceeds from the above issuance, resulting in 2,875,000 Founder Shares outstanding after the repurchase of which up to 375,000 shares are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriter. As a result, the Sponsors hold a total of 2,875,000 Founder Shares, or approximately $0.0087 per share.

 

As of May 7, 2026, there were 2,875,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding; shares have been retroactively restated to reflect the issuance of 2,875,000 ordinary shares for $25,000 in March 2026, resulting in a total of 2,875,000 ordinary shares, among which, up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full, so that the Sponsors will beneficially own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the IPO (not including the shares underlying the private placement units and assuming the sponsors do not purchase any Public Shares in the IPO and excluding the Private Units).

 

The Founder Shares are identical to the ordinary shares included in the Units being sold in the IPO, and holders of Founder Shares have the same shareholder rights as public shareholders, except that (i) the Founder Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, and (ii) the Sponsor, officers and directors of the Company have entered into a letter agreement with the Company, pursuant to which they have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to the Founder Shares, private placement shares and public shares in connection with the completion of its initial Business Combination and (B) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares and private placement shares if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within 15 months from the effective date of the registration statement, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete its initial Business Combination within such time period and (iii) the Founder Shares and private placement shares are subject to registration rights. If the Company submits its initial Business Combination to its public shareholders for a vote, the Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed (and their permitted transferees will agree), pursuant to the terms of a letter agreement entered into with the Company, to vote any Founder Shares and private placement shares held by them and any public shares purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Company’s initial Business Combination.

 

With certain limited exceptions, the Founder Shares are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to certain permitted transferees) until the earlier of 180 days after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination or the date on which the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share subdivisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination.

Due to Related Party

 

Due to related party represents a $75,000 deposit made by the Sponsor into the Trust Account in connection with a potential over-allotment exercise. The balance is non-interest bearing and payable on demand.

 

Promissory Note — Related Party

 

On July 31, 2025, Sponsor A agreed to loan the Company up to an aggregate amount of $300,000 to be used, in part, for transaction costs incurred in connection with the IPO (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is unsecured, interest-free and due on the date on which the Company consummates an initial public offering of its securities. The total outstanding balance of $300,000 under the promissory notes were repaid on May 7, 2026.

 

Working Capital Loans

 

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes the initial Business Combination, the Company may repay the Working Capital Loans. In the event that the initial Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units of the post business combination entity at a price of $10.00 per Unit at the option of the lender. The terms of Working Capital Loans by the Company’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. As of January 31, 2026, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

 

As of May 7, 2026, the Company had no borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.

 

Administrative Services Agreement

 

On August 13, 2025, the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Sponsor A, commencing on the effective date of the registration statement of the initial public offering through the earlier of the consummation by the Company of an initial business combination or the Company’s liquidation, to pay Sponsor A $10,000 per month for office space and administrative and support services. On April 17, 2026, the Company and Sponsor A entered into an amendment to the Administrative Services Agreement, pursuant to which the monthly fee was adjusted to $6,666.67.

 

Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies

 

Registration Rights

 

The holders of the Founder Shares, the private units (including securities contained therein), units (including securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans, any ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the private rights that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the working capital loans, will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to an agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the IPO, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to two demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of an initial business combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the underwriters may not exercise their demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part and may not exercise their demand rights on more than one occasion. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

 

Underwriting Agreement

 

The Company has granted the underwriters a 45-day option from the date of the IPO to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any, at the IPO price less the underwriting discounts and commissions.

 

The underwriter will be entitled to (i) an underwriting discount of $0.05175 per unit, or $517,500 (which remain unchanged if the over-allotment option is exercised in full or in part) in the aggregate, which will be paid in cash at the closing of the IPO, (ii) 1%, or 100,000 shares will be paid in the form of representative shares (the “Representative Shares”) at the closing of the IPO (such representative shares shall be registered so as to circumvent reliance on the Rule 144 exemption and shall only therein be subject to FINRA’s 180-day lock-up period rule), and (iii) 1%, or 100,000 shares will be issued to the representative of the underwriters upon completion of an initial business combination, as described in this prospectus (the “Deferred Compensation Shares”).

 

F-11

 

Representative Shares and Deferred Compensation Shares

 

The Representative Shares and Deferred Compensation Shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA and are therefore subject to a lock-up for a period of 180 days immediately following the date of the commencement of sales in the IPO pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1). Pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(1), these securities will not be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the commencement of sales of the public offering, subject to exceptions pursuant to FINRA Rule 5110(e)(2).

 

Note 7 - Shareholder’s Equity

 

Ordinary Shares — The Company is authorized to issue a total of 500,000,000 ordinary shares at par value of $0.0001 per share. On July 31, 2025, the Company issued 1,725,000 ordinary shares to its Sponsors for $25,000, or approximately $0.0145 per share. As of January 31, 2026, there were 2,875,000 ordinary shares outstanding, of which an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised by the underwriters in full. In March 2026, the Company issued 2,875,000 Founder Shares to its Sponsors for $25,000, and immediately repurchased the 1,725,000 initial shares from the Sponsors for $25,000, being the proceeds from the above issuance, resulting in 2,875,000 Founder Shares outstanding after the repurchase of which an aggregate of up to 375,000 shares are subject to forfeiture if the over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part by the underwriter. As a result, the Sponsors hold a total of 2,875,000 Founder Shares, or approximately $0.0087 per share.

 

As of May 7, 2026, there were 2,875,000 Founder Shares issued and outstanding; shares have been retroactively restated to reflect the issuance of 2,875,000 ordinary shares in March 2026 for $25,000, resulting in a total of 2,875,000 ordinary shares, among which, up to 375,000 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriters’ over-allotment is not exercised in full, so that the Sponsors will beneficially own 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the IPO (not including the shares underlying the private placement units and assuming the sponsors do not purchase any Public Shares in the IPO and excluding the Private Units).

 

Rights — Each holder of a right will receive one-fourth (1/4) of one ordinary share upon consummation of a Business Combination, even if the holder of such right redeemed all shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination. No fractional shares will be issued upon conversion of the rights. No additional consideration will be required to be paid by a holder of rights in order to receive its additional shares upon consummation of a Business Combination, as the consideration related thereto has been included in the Unit purchase price paid for by investors in the IPO. If the Company enters into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination in which the Company will not be the surviving entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of rights to receive the same per ordinary share consideration the holders of the ordinary shares will receive in the transaction on an as-converted into ordinary shares basis and each holder of a right will be required to affirmatively covert its rights in order to receive one share underlying each right (without paying additional consideration). The shares issuable upon conversion of the rights will be freely tradable (except to the extent held by affiliates of the Company).

 

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of rights will not receive any of such funds with respect to their rights, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such rights, and the rights will expire worthless. Further, there are no contractual penalties for failure to deliver securities to the holders of the rights upon consummation of a Business Combination. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the rights. Accordingly, the rights may expire worthless.

 

Note 8 — Segment Information

 

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” establishes standards for companies to report in their financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance.

 

F-12

 

The Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Financial Officer (“CODM”), who reviews the assets, operating results and financial metrics for the Company as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one operating and reportable segment. The CODM reviews the position of total assets available to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities.

 

When evaluating the Company’s performance and making key decisions regarding resource allocation the CODM reviews several key metrics, which include the following:

 

  

For the
Period from
February 1,

2026 to
May 7,
2026

 
Formation and operating costs  $38,581 

 

   May 7,
2026
 
Cash  $943,073 
Cash held in Trust Account  $100,500,000 

 

The key measure of segment profit or loss reviewed by the CODM is formation and operating costs. Formation and operating costs include accounting expenses, printing expenses, and regulatory filing fees, none of which are deemed to be significant segment expenses and are reviewed in aggregate to ensure alignment with budget and contractual obligations. These expenses are monitored to manage and forecast cash available to complete a business combination within the required period.

 

The CODM also reviews the position of total assets available with the Company to assess if the Company has sufficient resources available to discharge its liabilities.    

 

Note 9 — Fair Value Measurements

 

The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities that are measured at fair value on May 7, 2026, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

 

  

As of
May 7,
2026

  

Significant
Other
Unobservable
Inputs
(Level 3)

 
Liabilities:          
Over-allotment option liabilities  $135,280   $135,280 

 

F-13

 

The over-allotment option was accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC 815-40 and is presented within liabilities on the balance sheet. The over-allotment liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of over-allotment liabilities in the statement of operations.

 

The Company used a Black-Scholes model to value the over-allotment option. The Company allocated the proceeds received from the sale of Units (which is inclusive of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fourth of one ordinary share upon the consummation of an initial business combination) based on their relative fair values at the initial measurement date. The over-allotment option liabilities were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy at the measurement dates due to the use of unobservable inputs. Inherent in pricing models are assumptions related to expected share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its ordinary share based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the option. The expected life of the option is assumed to be equivalent to their remaining contractual term.

 

The key inputs into the Black-Scholes model were as follows at initial measurement of the over-allotment option:

 

Input 

As of
May 7
2026

 
Risk-free interest rate   3.99%

FAQ

What did Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. (VECA) raise in its IPO?

Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. raised $100,000,000 by selling 10,000,000 units at $10.00 each in its initial public offering. Together with 251,250 private units, $100,500,000 was deposited into a U.S. trust account for public shareholders’ benefit and future business combination funding.

How are VECA’s IPO units and rights structured for investors?

Each VECA unit consists of one ordinary share and one right to receive one-fourth of an ordinary share upon completion of a business combination. Investors must hold rights in multiples of four to receive whole shares, and no additional cash is required when rights convert after a successful deal.

Why does Vernal Capital Acquisition Corp. have a going concern warning?

The auditor and management note substantial doubt about VECA’s ability to continue as a going concern. The company must complete a qualifying business combination within 15 months from the IPO closing, or up to 21 months with extensions, or face automatic winding up and liquidation of public shares.

How much cash does VECA have in its trust account and outside it?

As of May 7, 2026, VECA holds $100,500,000 in a U.S. trust account for public shareholders and potential redemptions. It also has $943,073 of cash outside the trust for working capital, after deducting IPO-related costs and repayment of a $300,000 sponsor loan.

What are VECA’s founder shares and who holds them?

VECA’s sponsors hold 2,875,000 founder shares acquired for $25,000 in total, or about $0.0087 per share. Up to 375,000 of these may be forfeited if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full, targeting sponsor ownership of about 20% of post-IPO shares.

What happens to VECA public shareholders if no business combination occurs?

If VECA fails to complete a business combination within the allowed 15- to 21-month window, it will cease operations, redeem all public shares for cash from the trust account, and liquidate. The rights will expire worthless, and public shareholders will lose any upside beyond their cash redemption.
